[RFC PATCH v2 2/6] serial: uartps: Move register to probe based on run time detection

From: Michal Simek
Date: Wed Jun 06 2018 - 08:42:48 EST


Find out the highest serial alias and allocate that amount of
structures/minor numbers to be able to handle all of them.
Origin setting that there are two prealocated CDNS_UART_NR_PORTS is kept
there.

Changes in v2:
- Remove nr field logic

Discussed here: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9738445/

The same solution is done in pl011 driver.
